This table shows the 2021 population and dwelling counts for reported forward sortation areas.

The 2011 Census Forward Sortation Area (FSA) Boundary File depicts the boundaries of 1,621 forward sortation areas (identified by the first three characters of the postal code) derived from postal codesOM captured from the 2011 Census of Population questionnaires.Through analysis of the postal codesOM reported by census households, a single FSA was assigned to each dissemination block based on the most frequently reported FSA for the dissemination block. Unreported dissemination blocks were assigned an FSA based on proximity to reported dissemination blocks in the same province or territory or nearest Canada Post Corporation delivery installation.The 2011 Census FSA Boundary File provides a framework for mapping and spatial analysis. It is available in two types: cartographic and digital. The cartographic boundary file depicts the 2011 FSAs with the shoreline of the major land mass of Canada and its coastal islands. The digital boundary file depicts the full extent of the 2011 FSAs, including the coastal water area.

Data on age in single years including average age and median age and gender for the population of Canada and forward sortation areas.

Projected population according to various scenarios, age groups and gender, Canada, provinces and territories.

This dataset details the total number of electric vehicles (EVs) in Ontario. This includes both battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). Data includes: * Total EVs by Forward Sortation Area (FSA) (the first three characters of the postal code) of the vehicle plate owner’s registered address * Number of BEVs by FSA of the vehicle plate owner’s registered address * Number of PHEVs by FSA of the vehicle plate owner’s registered address Note: Datasets from July 1, 2024 onward include all electric vehicles with licence plates that have been automatically renewed.

The 2001 Census Forward Sortation Area (FSA) Boundary File contains the boundaries of 1,577 forward sortation areas (the first three characters of a postal code) derived from postal codes captured from the 2001 Census of Population questionnaires. Through analysis of the postal codes reported by Census households, a single Forward Sortation Area was assigned to each reported block based on the most frequently reported Forward Sortation Area for the block. Unreported blocks were assigned a Forward Sortation Area based on proximity to reported blocks in the same province or territory. The product consists of two separate layers: a boundary file whose extents are those of the National Geographic Base, and a cartographic boundary file which incorporates hydrography (the shoreline around Canada) with the Forward Sortation Area boundaries. The co-ordinates are in latitude/longitude and are based on the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83).

The CLB is available to children born on or after January 1, 2004, who are from low-income families or getting benefits under the Children’s Special Allowance Act. The CLB provides an initial payment of $500, and $100 for each year of eligibility up to age 15 (to a maximum of $2,000) and is retroactive. This means CLB payments can be requested for years the beneficiary was eligible, even for years before they were named in an RESP. Personal contributions are not required to receive the CLB. The table consists of quarterly data beginning with the period ending on December 31, 2006. The first column presents the number of children who have ever received the CLB, the second column presents the number of eligible children in the given Forward Sortation Area (sourced from the Canada Revenue Agency), and the third column presents the participation rate or the proportion of children receiving the CLB in relation to the eligible population. All population counts of 30 or below are censored due to privacy issues. ********************************************************* A methodological note on the cumulative CLB file - as of March 14, 2024 The cumulative CLB file is an update of the CLB data from consecutive editions of the Quarterly National CLB report by Forward Sortation Area (FSA). The current file is updated using CLB data from the last four quarters (Q1 2024 through to Q4 2024) that can be found in the Q4 2023 National CLB report. The Q4 2024 report also contains the updated FSA values from the December 2024 release of Statistics Canada’s Postal Code Conversion File. In this edition one new FSA value (V4Y) was created and no FSA values were removed. Updates of the historical and recent CLB data, in the cumulative file, are adjusted to reflect the new and old FSA values. All counts of 30 or under are not included and are represented with an asterisk in the Quarterly National CLB report by FSA. The Quarterly National CLB report by FSA presents CLB data by FSA and does not include the CLB aggregated data at either the national or province and territory levels. As of January 1, 2022, individuals eligible for the CLB who were born in 2004 or after but did not receive it yet can apply for the benefit when they turn 18. As a result, adult beneficiaries (i.e., those who receive it between the ages of 18 and 20) are included in beneficiary counts from 2022 onward. The primary source of data that is used to produce these numbers comes from the Canada Education Savings Program’s administrative data. Some updates (e.g., reversals, repayments, data errors, and reporting delays) may have been introduced in the Canada Education Savings Program’s administrative data that could affect the previous reporting periods. As a result, the values in the latest quarterly report supersede the previous quarterly reports. Please note that the Open Government Portal provides data that add to those already available in the Canada Education Savings Program Annual Statistical Review. The most recent version of the report, which includes data up to 2023, was published on October 7, 2024 and can be found here: https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-development/services/student-financial-aid/education-savings/reports/statistical-review.html

The Canada Education Savings Grant (CESG) is money offered by the Government of Canada to help families start saving early for their children’s post-secondary education. The CESG is calculated based on contributions made to a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) for an eligible beneficiary and consists of two components: the Basic and Additional CESG. The Basic CESG is a 20% payment on the first $2,500 of contributions made into an RESP each year. Beneficiaries are eligible to receive the Basic CESG up to the end of the calendar year in which they turn 17. The Basic CESG is available to all eligible beneficiaries, regardless of income. Beneficiaries from low- or middle-income families may also qualify for the Additional CESG, a payment of 10% or 20% on the first $500 of contributions made each year, up to the end of the calendar year in which the beneficiary turns 17. The Government of Canada pays a maximum lifetime amount of $7,200 in the Basic and Additional CESG to each beneficiary. This dataset presents the number of CESG beneficiaries and payments by Forward Sortation Area (FSA) for 2021, 2022 and 2023 which were obtained from the Canada Education Savings Program (CESP) administrative data.
